Bravo Erica and Jordan, a magnificent video that perfectly explains the things to do for a perfect visit to Paris. I strongly advise all tourists to watch this video, between the French words to know (the French are happy when you make the effort to say them) and the magnificent places to visit (the Luxembourg gardens are an absolute must). Advice to follow absolutely.

Just back from 3 weeks in Paris (05 March-26 March). Please, please, please stop and just soak it all in. We ran around for days. Looking back we needed more "free time". As stated below, a Bonjour! will go a long way and you will be welcomed everywhere. Skip the hotel rooms with families. Rent a homeaway, vrbo or aribnb. You wont regret it!. Hearing our 2 adult/teen sons talking and just "existing" in earshot makes my heart soar. I hated being in the airport hotel the last night and not hearing or seeing them. Plus shopping at Carrefour or Monoprix is your best bet for some snacks and cost effective cooked meals. Yes, pre book all your tours and special meals as soon as you can. Speaking from experience!

Another great video Mates. Lots of very pertinent information in this. I especially endorse the basic manners of saying "Bonjour" etc (because it really does go a long way, along with "Merci" and "Sil Vous Plait"), and those fast closing doors on trains. Tourists and locals alike, get caught off guard with those if you're not paying attention. Keep up the great job on these.

Omg the part where you talk about where to stay and the neighborhoods is so helpful!!!!

[memyself]

Great video ! Ty ! Going in the last week of Oct til beg of November, going to do a France road trip and planning three days in Paris ... which is the best arrondismont/neighborhood to stay in with great night life for a couple, with more local people living and is also walking distance from most sites ??

If you get a Navigo Metro pass 1) each person needs one. You can’t go thru the turnstle and then pass the Navigo back to another person. 2) to me the turnstyle was slow in opening so I thought the pass didn’t regisister so I tapped again. But that made the turnstyle think that I was having another petson use my pass and so it didn’t open. We got that straightened out with an attendent, but it irritated me each time.

If a waiter is asking for a tip tell him to pound sand. They absolutely do not ask Parisians for tips.

[PawedCrew]

Excellent! So many valuable tips and exactly what I was looking for to prepare for our upcoming trip! Thank you!

[ladygomez]

[robertodepasamonte]

[tanyamoreno]

[deenaparker]

Nice overview and pointers! Thank you.

[richardrubert]

Thank you, we will be there in two weeks.

[asmroreo]

Love your video's, extermely useful...Thank you

[nanfrimodig]

Oh my goodness. Such a great helpful video. Will definitely be downloading your information. Thank you so much. Does the Seine river tour pick up and drop off at the same location? That’s the only thing I was confused on.

[wberckmann]

Tips: Don't buy the Paris Visite pass, buy the passe Navigo, much less expensive. Toilets, ask where the phone is in a cafe, if they have one. They're always located downstairs by the toilets and no purchase is necessary.
